Good buy on the Wilde punches, I use my roll pin punches all the time.

they were on closeout at my menards for 12 bucks they used to be about 35 if i remember when i looked in past

Right now they're so tight and stiff they'll hardly open, but they should break in nicely with a good wd40 flush and repeated opening.

These could be a little better, but they do cut extremely well.
Overall I'm happy with them and can't complain too much, because I'm pretty sure they're an end of the road pair from just before they closed in 1994 and I wasn't expecting them to be perfect.

Try scrubbing them with some mechanics hand cleaner like GOJO.

Saw these over on the dark side, and they looked interesting enough to buy a set. You install them into a 1/2" ratcheting box wrench and then use a 1/4" or 5/16" hex bit for those really tight jobs. We'll see how they work.

Got these in mail saw them in a video and had to try them.. Mayhew bolt breaker air hammer bits they have a square dtive for a socket and they have a hex behind it to use a wrench to turn it while hammering. Only time will tell if their worth a damn

That's my every day set at work. Except I swapped the side cutter for Knipex and channellock ones.

Channellock 326 and 3026.


The 326 was in the same condition as the 3026 here, but the tip was bent.

The 3026 had a broken tip



The grips are what they are, but the rest if the pliers came out great and they're buttery smooth.
